UofU Patient August 31, 2016
My only complain is that I had to ask every time that Dr. Barlow and his assistant also the resident Dr were talking about my condition. When I was seen by Dr. Mamalis, he would explain every step of the way what he is doing, why he is doing it and would tell me the result of each step. I need to be included in the discussion about my eyes. Even if I didn't have any college degrees, the Dr should find a way to communicate with me what is he doing and why.
UofU Patient August 31, 2016Dr. Barlow is fantastic. Although it was a quick exam he was very thorough
UofU Patient August 31, 2016dr. explained how it would be to wear contacts. he explained about why I need glasses after cataract surgery.he went over different kinds of contacts .
UofU Patient August 23, 2016Followup care alluded to but not explained in detail
UofU Patient August 17, 2016The doctor seemed a little rushed but otherwise fine.
UofU Patient August 16, 2016Only issue was Dr. Barlow did not recommend aspirin, although it was written in follow-up report.
UofU Patient August 08, 2016another of my family has an upcoming appointment
UofU Patient July 26, 2016seemed to be in a rush, I felt that he was really busy
UofU Patient July 18, 2016good
UofU Patient July 14, 2016Highly recommendable.
UofU Patient July 11, 2016Very good experience
UofU Patient July 09, 2016Thank you
UofU Patient July 04, 2016I learned I have early or mild cataracts, which my previous doctor (Moran Eye at Redstone) hadn't mentioned. I keep records and prefer to be informed so I appreciated learning this information.
UofU Patient July 01, 2016i feel like I am finally getting my eye issues addressed and have confidence in Dr. Barlow. i appreciate the time he takes to explain findings and the respect he gives to me.
UofU Patient July 01, 2016Appreciate the way he listened to me.
UofU Patient June 29, 2016Felt like Dr. was rushed, he was probably very busy. I still have a lot of questions about everything, that I guess I will ask on my next appointment. Hopefully the tech who will be helping me will know the answers.
UofU Patient June 28, 2016Can always spend a little more time, but I know their time is valuable. Overall very impressed w/Dr. Barlow & staff.
UofU Patient June 28, 2016great interactions with the doctor plus unexpected improvement in eyes from treatment.
UofU Patient June 19, 2016while I certainly like efficient doctors...this seemed a little too rushed. I feel like he was in and out in the blink of an eye. I would have liked him to slow down just a bit. I was never asked about my medical history or eye problems.
UofU Patient June 13, 2016Dr. Barlow actually listened to what I had to say, and took that into account with the exam. He asked questions, and then at the end of the exam he asked me if there was anything that he hadn't covered, and gave me time to think and ask questions. What a difference! My old Dr. never asked me anything, and basically ran out the door.
UofU Patient June 05, 2016very good
UofU Patient June 04, 2016Dr. Barlow was very efficient. I was seen by two others before him and they were all courteous and nice.
UofU Patient June 04, 2016good
UofU Patient June 01, 2016I look forward to a long relationship with Dr. Barlow. He seems competent, confident and communicates well. The best is that he seems to listen to the patient.
UofU Patient May 30, 2016Felt everyone knew their jobs and treated us well.
UofU Patient May 29, 2016Patient, front desk staff, technician and doctor friendly- environment/relationship should be a must and foremost- CARING!
UofU Patient May 28, 2016I would describe my entire experience and outcome as "exceptional" rather than merely "very good" and I talk about Dr. Barlow and Moran Eye Center frequently, with glowing and confident recommendations to friends who may need eye surgery.
UofU Patient May 25, 2016very nice staff for from top to bottom
UofU Patient May 15, 2016All very good.
UofU Patient May 12, 2016Overall, I was pleasantly surprised both in the confidence of the doctor and in his ability to communicate the difficult topic clearly and concisely. He answered every question clearly and quickly. I felt confident upon leaving in his ability with the procedures he will undertake and his understanding of some unique issues I faced. I had read some previous reviews of this doctor that he seemed in a hurry. That was not my impression at all. My wife and I compared notes and thought he was very thorough, and spoke confidently to questions he has probably answered several hundred times before. I felt re-assured with him following this visit.
UofU Patient May 08, 2016I was pleasantly suprised
UofU Patient April 30, 2016appt. was fine, follow-up, at this point is "iffy"
UofU Patient April 30, 2016No one took my fears and concerns for granted or ignored them. the entire experience was therefore kind, compassionate, caring, dignified, and efficient. I have already recommended Moran Eye Center to many friends and repeated what I learned from Dr. Barlow about the lenses and procedures available. By the way, everyone I spoke with expressed surprise when I told them I was never in pain or high anxiety.
UofU Patient April 29, 2016After surgery I had pain, saw flashing strobe lights and could barely read the top line of the chart on the wall. I am very grateful that I can see small print if it is black on white. However, any other color contrasts still require standing by a window or bright light and I still have a vibrating halo effect. I have been patient as I was told it should improve. Now it has healed and I would understand if someone just explained that the result is what had been expected.
UofU Patient April 26, 2016good
UofU Patient April 20, 2016Dr Barlow explains all medications and possible causes for any problems relating to my eyes.
UofU Patient April 19, 2016I have been seeing Dr Barlow for several years
UofU Patient April 14, 2016I could not have been more pleased
UofU Patient April 13, 2016I was so impressed with the way the doctor took care of everything so efficiently and with such care.
UofU Patient April 08, 2016it would have been helpful if you would have named a product containing all you want me to take. now I have to try and find a pharmacist to guide me
UofU Patient April 06, 2016Dr. Barlow was wonderful! He was very thorough in explaining my PRK procedure to me and telling me what to expect after the surgery. I truly felt like I was in the best hands with Dr. Barlow. He was super caring as well. Great doctor!
UofU Patient March 29, 2016I came to the Moran because they are well known for excellence. My only concern is that teh diagnosis is completely opposite from my previous ophthalmologist. I want to trust Dr Barlow's diagnosis, but I am scared - what if...?
UofU Patient March 24, 2016Good
UofU Patient March 14, 2016I am hearing impaired and was impressed by the doctor's understanding and appreciated him speaking to me so that I could hear him clearly.
UofU Patient March 14, 2016MY WIFE AND I WERE IN AND OUT IN 1 HOUR. WE WERE TREATED VERY WELL. THANK YOU.
UofU Patient March 11, 2016He completely discounted my concern that there was something wrong other than what he thought was wrong. While I am sure I do have the condition he talked about there is also something else wrong with one eye. I have worn contacts for 50 years and know when something is suddenly really different. He just kept saying no it was just my age and the condition he said.
UofU Patient March 07, 2016The experiences with receiving updated corrective lenses for eyeglasses builds confidence that this practice is also the right choice for the upcoming cataract surgery.
UofU Patient March 06, 2016Dr. Barlow was brief but thorough. He answered my question to my satisfaction.
UofU Patient March 02, 2016Dr Barlow was terrific!
UofU Patient March 01, 2016I realize that Dr. Barlow was very busy (at least 4 patients scheduled at the same appt time as myself) but it would have been nice to have not felt so rushed.
UofU Patient February 18, 2016Dr.Barlow was then fourth doctor I had been to. He answered all my questions. I made another appointment.
UofU Patient February 17, 2016Very good
UofU Patient February 16, 2016Assistant was very friendly and helpful. When I ask about what kind of eye drops I should use for my eyes, she said she would leave some at the counter. None were left and I forgot to ask. The doctor did grab some on the way out without really looking or explaining them to me. He seemed hurried through the exam and not much interested. I had to ask questions to find out if my eyes were ok from diabetes. Not a very good first visit.
UofU Patient February 15, 2016treated professionally--very good
UofU Patient February 12, 2016The PA (woman) was very attentive and listened to my concerns. She then acted upon my concerns and did her very best to respond to them.
UofU Patient February 11, 2016Dr. Barlow was very nice and attentive.
UofU Patient February 10, 2016My condition was diagnosed several years ago and has been monitored regularly. I was prescribed a new medication from my former ophthalmologist who requested that I follow up with an ophthalmologist wherever I was in 4 to 6 weeks. This appt. was for that follow up. I had been uncomfortable about see someone new after many years with my former Dr. I was very pleased after this appt.
UofU Patient February 09, 2016All good
UofU Patient February 04, 2016Excellent care in a beautiful facility.
UofU Patient February 03, 2016I really liked the doctor. I plan to have my family come in for appointments as well
UofU Patient February 03, 2016Dr Barlow was great, he was very good at informing me of exactly what was going on with my eyes and that I did not have an infection.
UofU Patient January 30, 2016I was very anxious about my condition. The Dr put me at ease by explaining what the problem was! Very reassuring to me.
UofU Patient January 29, 2016good
UofU Patient January 26, 2016The eye doctor was excellent. Educated me on eye care, offered great advice and conducted a through exam. Very professional and yet personable. I felt like the Dr. understood my eye problems and was willing to help.
UofU Patient January 24, 2016The physician was running behind due to another patient taking longer than expected. He spent very little time with me, talked very fast, and seemed in a hurry to move on to the next patient.
UofU Patient January 24, 2016Dr. Barlow lately seems to be in a hurry and inconvenienced by any questions that we may have.
UofU Patient January 15, 2016very good
UofU Patient January 15, 2016Very personable, thorough(both of them)
UofU Patient January 12, 2016Dr. Barlow has a kind and patient manner. He thoroughly answered questions and discussed related concerns.
UofU Patient January 11, 2016My confidence in the doctor is good, the PA not so good.
UofU Patient January 11, 2016My total experience was very good.
UofU Patient January 09, 2016Dr Barlow is very professional yet comfortable to be around. He makes everything understandable and knows about how well insurance will cover costs (important to me). I like him a lot and have total confidence in his skills. I will recommend him to others!
UofU Patient January 07, 2016Dr. Barlow seemed in a bit of a rush this time. Usually he takes all the time with me that we need. I had no issues so my appointment was very short.
UofU Patient January 07, 2016Dr. Barlow was very personable and friendly. He diagnosed me with a very rare condition and referred to a neuro-opthamologist. He gave me what answers he could about the condition, but was honest with me and said he didn't know a ton and I needed to talk to the specialist he was sending me to. Overall, it was a very positive experience with Dr. Barlow.
UofU Patient January 07, 2016overall very good.
UofU Patient December 08, 2015I have recommended Dr. Barlow to several friends, co-workers and family members.
UofU Patient November 27, 2015Dr. Barlow is a tremendous asset to the University of Utah. He is an excellent ophthalmologist.
UofU Patient November 24, 2015It seemed a bit strange to me that the tech/MA did my complete eye exam. This is the first time I have had this happen in 25+ years of going to the eye doctor. Of my 60 minute visit, I only spent about 10 minuteds of that with Dr. Barlow.
UofU Patient November 13, 2015I appreciate that Dr. Barlow is on top of his knowledge base. He recommended a procedure that is much more in line with what my plans are for my eyes.
UofU Patient November 09, 2015She is GREAT!!
UofU Patient November 07, 2015The MA provided the actual exam, and the physician just came in for a minute or two with my prescription. I have not yet received my glasses, but I am nervous about the accuracy of the prescription.
UofU Patient November 03, 2015Excellent
UofU Patient October 27, 2015Top notch
UofU Patient October 26, 2015The Doctor put effort into my case such that he came up with a new solution to my prescription that previous Doctors at other practices missed and which solved my problem.
UofU Patient October 20, 2015Excellent
UofU Patient October 16, 2015I have recommended this Dr to others and they were very satisfied with their visit. One was diagnosed with Macular degeneration of her eye, which she is now receiving care for.
UofU Patient October 16, 2015I have recommended Dr. Jacoby and Dr. Barlow and the Moran Eye Center to many people who have needed eye care.
UofU Patient October 13, 2015From first meeting to being out the door after follow up appt, I couldn't be happier that I chose Dr. Barlow. I had many questions which he answered throughly and helpfully. He went out of his way to schedule my surgery so that I didn't have to make an extra trip to SLC. (I live 360 miles away)
UofU Patient October 10, 2015He listened and gave good explanations to questions asked.
UofU Patient October 07, 2015He was great, addressed concerns and extremely professional
UofU Patient September 30, 2015Doctor was kind, checked my eyes with care and explained to me what was my problem and the solution
UofU Patient September 16, 2015exceptional
UofU Patient September 15, 2015I have already told my friends about the Day Break Eye center.
UofU Patient September 05, 2015enjoy dr Barlow
UofU Patient August 31, 2015No problems encountered
UofU Patient August 30, 2015Dr. Barlow provided thorough answers to my questions so I understand my situation. Also, told me to call any time with questions. Excellent!!
UofU Patient August 30, 2015I a sked about meds before surgery because they forgot to prescribe at initial visit. He did take care of that, but did not explain I would not just be getting 1 prescription but 3 different ones. Had to call to make sure what I was to take before surgery and after. I would have taken all 3 if I did not call in.
UofU Patient August 26, 2015I have now seen three different care providers for my condition at this facility, each one has been overly attentive and courteous and extremely patient with my concerns.
UofU Patient August 24, 2015I would be more comfortable if the Dr. we're to test my eyes for a glasses perccription instead of his helper. Last year I had problems with my new glasses and the Dr. did the second test and got a different prescription than the girl.
UofU Patient August 23, 2015did not receive detailed information on the different surgery options. Like why pay more for laser surgery? Why opt for multifocal vs monofocal lens? Came home with lots of questions unanswered
UofU Patient August 21, 2015i will be bringing in my wife and two sons to see Dr. Barlow.
UofU Patient August 17, 2015Seemed more rushed than last time, and only answer to some of my concerns is that medically everything looks fine.
UofU Patient August 14, 2015seems like face time with one's chosen physician gets shorter and shorter. Dr Barlow seems competent and professional but always a bit rushed. I didn't really understand the rx routine and felt there wasn't time to ask.
UofU Patient August 11, 2015I would say excellent and not very good.
UofU Patient August 04, 2015i APPRECIATE DR BARLOW. HE HAS TAKEN CARE OF MY EYE PROBLEM AND I FEEL VERY CONFIDENT IN HIS SKILLS
UofU Patient July 09, 2015Both the Nurse assistant and the doctor were very professional and kind.
UofU Patient July 04, 2015Very kind, professional, and does a great job. Great doctor.
UofU Patient June 26, 2015I feel very confident in Dr. Barlow. it is so nice to be in such confident hands. His nurse and physician assistant are very friendly and put me at ease. It was very enjoyable experience.
UofU Patient June 23, 2015Was very pleased with Dr. Barlow
UofU Patient June 23, 2015I waited a long time in the exam room for the doctor to come in. When he did come in I felt like he was in a rush to be somewhere else. He barely made eye contact and scanned through my chart really fast repeating what was on the screen. After the exam which lasted no more than 5 minutes, he walked me out towards the front desk and just pointed towards a general area saying "she'll check you out over there" and then he turned around and went back down the hall. This is my second experience with this same doctor and the first visit was pretty much the same as this one. I will be switching to another physician for my next appointment. I usually get excellent care from the University of Utah location as all of my doctors are located there, however I do not get the same treatment from the Moran Eye Center.
UofU Patient June 21, 2015I have already recommended this clinic. I was very impressed.
UofU Patient June 19, 2015I couldn't be happier to have met Dr. Barlow. He put me at ease, and was the first doctor to give me reasons behind my discomfort with my contacts, which I have had for many years. He offered me solutions and tips to help, and made me feel at ease with some bad information another doctor (outside of the U) had given me. I would recommend him to anyone who asked.
UofU Patient June 17, 2015Very professional
UofU Patient June 17, 2015They ran a lot of tests to figure out why I was having problems with getting eye glasses that I could seer out of.
UofU Patient June 16, 2015It was a busy day at the eye center so the wait was understandable. I was surprised, however, at the very rushed manner of the doctor, and especially at the fact that he didn't make eye contact at all until he was leaving.
UofU Patient June 11, 2015Dr. Barlow was great!
UofU Patient May 26, 2015He seemed much more relaxed and less rushed than during my first visit at the Daybreak Center
UofU Patient May 26, 2015Great staff, Doctor was easy to talk with
UofU Patient May 25, 2015Dr. Barlow is so professional and caring. I completely trust him with the care of my vision. I want to say that I am so impressed with Ester. She is extremely intelligent and knowledgeable in her field. I have 100% confidence in her.
UofU Patient May 19, 2015I really like Dr. Barlow a lot. He is always nice, friendly & doesn't rush me. I feel like he genuinely cares about his patients.
UofU Patient May 19, 2015Dr. Barlow is very personable and has a great "bedside manner".
UofU Patient May 13, 2015I was disappointed in his explaining results of exam. He seemed in a hurry and simply said he could do nothing before correcting the "dry eyes", and handed me the summary sheet without reviewing the 4 diagnosis items with me, whose definitions I had to look up on the Internet when I returned home. He did not seem to want to describe his findings to help me know what to expect in the future. In short, I didn't know enough to know what questions I should ask to know what the future visits might (could) produce. His assistant provided more insight into current conditions - other than the "dry eyes" than did Dr. Barlow. I still don't know what "Combined forms of age-related cataract..." means.
UofU Patient May 05, 2015I usually got to parkway center. they seam smaller and more personable
UofU Patient May 04, 2015I have already referred three people to Dr. Barlow.
UofU Patient May 03, 2015Dr. Barlow was so great! I appreciated his advice on how to try to prevent my issue in the future, beginning with something as simple as taking Fish Oil.
UofU Patient May 03, 2015Great doctor. He even took time to do a small surgery so I would not have to go back.
UofU Patient May 01, 2015It was a good experience.
UofU Patient May 01, 2015a great experience
UofU Patient April 21, 2015loved doc Barlow
UofU Patient April 20, 2015I really enjoy coming to the Moran/UofU facility. I live in Hurricane, Ut. Worth the drive
UofU Patient April 01, 2015Overall a good experience, I plan to return. The eye doctor was clearly busy, and this was evident in his demeanor. However, I still felt like I received good service and information. I would have preferred some more time to sit down and consult with the doctor one-on-one. This option was not explicitly unavailable, but I felt vaguely rushed.
UofU Patient March 30, 2015The provider was extremely pleasant and enjoyed chatting about shared interests, unfortunately, this may have caused him to not be as focused when completing my prescription paperwork, as the glasses I had came to pick up were COMPLETELY WRONG!!!!
UofU Patient March 26, 2015I just have the feeling that he knows what he's doing and don't care about my concern.
UofU Patient March 25, 2015He was very friendly and reassuring. I would highly recommend him.
UofU Patient March 24, 2015He was just in too big of a hurry to get on to bigger and better things I guess. I felt he was in too big of a hurry to be on his way. I was left with too many of the same questions I had before I went.
UofU Patient March 23, 2015We'll be back again with other members of our family.
UofU Patient March 14, 2015I recommended Dr. Barlow to my sister. I would recommend him to anyone.
UofU Patient March 13, 2015dr Barlow is well informed and very efficient
UofU Patient March 09, 2015Dr. Barlow is fantastic, so caring and nice
UofU Patient March 09, 2015I would definitely recommend Dr. Barlow and his staff.
UofU Patient March 05, 2015Even if a provider is behind on his or her schedule, common courtesy is important.
UofU Patient March 05, 2015Dr. Barlow is wonderful, he is kind and explains everything so that it can be understood.
UofU Patient February 21, 2015I was very impressed with my experience at Moran. I definitely felt I received quality eye care. I appreciated the level of competency in the service. It was helpful to me to receive answers to all of my questions and I appreciated them making me aware of the details of the procedures they performed. I have never felt this satisfied with ANY eye care I have ever received before. It was all excellent!
UofU Patient February 09, 2015Overall not confident in either person who conducted my exams. They would ask if one or two was better, I would say neither and they would say okay so two was probably better. NO, NO it wasn't and as a result neither is my prescription. The person who helped me put my contacts in was WONDERFUL!!!!!
UofU Patient February 04, 2015I WAS WELL INFORMED ABOUT MY CONDITION AND HAD ALL OF MY QUESTIONS ANSWERED IN CLEAR TERMS THAT WERE EASY TO UNDERSTAND. AT NO TIME WAS I RUSHED OR HURRIED. GREAT FOLKS DOING A GREAT JOB. I TRUST THE PEOPLE HERE AND VALUE THIER EXPERT ADVICE.
UofU Patient February 03, 2015Despite being very busy, Dr. Barlow answered all of my questions and at no time rushed me.
UofU Patient January 20, 2015Dr. Barlow was very concerned about me and spent the time to enplane what was going on with my eye.
UofU Patient December 22, 2014Dr. Barlow is very professional. Ensures complete trust with my eyes.
UofU Patient December 21, 2014dr Barlow is great
UofU Patient December 15, 2014good teamwork, knowledgeable, helpful
UofU Patient December 11, 2014Dr. Barlow performed an in-depth exam, explained my problem and proposed treatment. Instructions were easy to understand. I'm improving already - within 2 days of visit.
UofU Patient November 28, 2014Good
UofU Patient November 25, 2014Dr. Barlow explained my treatment in detail in a way that was easy to understand.
UofU Patient November 16, 2014I like Dr. Barlow a lot. He is always very nice & never makes me feel rushed. He spends as much time as necessary to answer my questions, etc. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.
UofU Patient November 05, 2014Excellent.
UofU Patient November 05, 2014The doctor spent maybe 5 minutes with me, seemed annoyed that I was there, and rushed to get out. I feel like he brushed off all of my concerns and made me feel stupid for even bringing them up.
UofU Patient November 05, 2014Dr.Barlow never rushes through the exam or visit and explains every detail of the procedure or treatment plan. My only regret is I didn't listen to Dr. Palmer when he offered to refer me to Dr. Barlow in the first place.
UofU Patient October 31, 2014I would recommend dr barlow to someone else. my previous eye doctor at excel was horrible. dr barlow is amazing
UofU Patient October 28, 2014It was not immediately understood that I had health insurance. Don't know it didn't seem to be in the system though all of the other doctors there were aware of it.
UofU Patient September 25, 2014Dr. Barlow is always a pleasure to deal with. He is friendly & always explains things so I can understand. He never seems to be in a rush & lets me ask as many questions as I need. I have always been pleased with my visits. I wish I had found him sooner.
UofU Patient September 12, 2014I felt like I could trust the doctor.
UofU Patient September 09, 2014DR BARLOW IS GREAT
UofU Patient September 01, 2014Dr. Barlow came highly recommended to me by Loria Roth. I'm so grateful I got a second diagnosis as the first was erroneous.
UofU Patient August 18, 2014dr ram was amazing!!!
UofU Patient August 14, 2014Amount of time of care provider spent with me was very short with very little explanation regarding the cause of the irritation and how/if his the diagnosis was related to a misdiagnosis given by a nurse/doctor a few days before. The previous misdiagnosis was at the after care...same location.
UofU Patient August 06, 2014I would highly recommend Dr. Barlow to anyone needing a good ophthalmologist.
UofU Patient August 04, 2014Physician is a man of few words. He was very confident.
UofU Patient July 16, 2014every thing is good
UofU Patient July 15, 2014great
UofU Patient July 10, 2014love Dr Barlow
UofU Patient July 06, 2014good experience
UofU Patient July 04, 2014I felt very confident in the staff that attended me. Their demeanor was comforting and I appreciated the amount of time that was taken to make sure I was well informed about my situation.
UofU Patient July 01, 2014Very efficient. Got to the heart of the problem, treated and sent me on my way! As it should be.
UofU Patient July 01, 2014good experience
UofU Patient June 27, 2014They could have shared more what I would experience after receiving the eye dilating and numbing drops.
UofU Patient June 27, 2014I have been a patient of Dr. Barlow for several years, always a good experience
UofU Patient June 11, 2014The Moran Eye Center was very highly recommended by a friend and her parents and I will highly recommend Moran E C too.
UofU Patient June 02, 2014A++
UofU Patient June 01, 2014the way she explained my disease was so matter of fact and cold, scared the crap out of me. I cried she showed no empathy.
UofU Patient May 26, 2014Both the resident and Dr. Barlow were exceptionally nice
UofU Patient April 28, 2014Both Ashley and Dr. Barlow were great
UofU Patient April 23, 2014Thank you.
UofU Patient April 21, 2014I had never had my eyes diulated and they explained the procedure and the amount of time till I was back to normal
UofU Patient April 21, 2014I liked Dr. Barlow very much & had the utmost confidence in him. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. He was very caring, friendly, knowledgeable & I felt he would've spent as much time with me as necessary so that I understood everything. He didn't seem like he was in a big hurry to get to the next patient like some doctors. I am so glad I found him because I tried 2 other doctors in the last 5 years that I did not like.
UofU Patient April 12, 2014would recommend this practitioner to others. I have been a patient for three years and have seen three practitioners, each of them have been efficient and courteous, informative and patient.
UofU Patient March 23, 2014Dr Barlow and his staff are very professional and caring.
UofU Patient March 17, 2014I am very pleased with my experiences at the Center.
UofU Patient March 11, 2014I seemed to have already said everything in my first comments. I am greatful for doctors that take the time to actually examine you when you go in and listen to you and then explain. I was greatful for this and ease and comfort I was given.
UofU Patient February 19, 2014Dr Barlow is a significant asset to the Moran! He showed expertise, professionalism, and took the time to answer any questions or concerns I had in regards to the exam and results. Dr Barlow also displayed a strong mentoring relationship with the resident he was working with.
UofU Patient February 17, 2014Great !

UofU Patient February 02, 2014I will be back in a few years for my other cataract surgery with Dr. Barlow.
UofU Patient February 01, 2014I am not a patient person; and I am a fairly demanding "customer". Still, I was absolutely stunned (positively) at every aspect of the care and courtesy I rec'd.
UofU Patient January 31, 2014He addressed my concerns and offered solutions. Very professional.

UofU Patient January 22, 2014great
UofU Patient January 13, 2014This was the first time I had seen Dr. Barlow and I could not have been happier with the care I received. He was warm, friendly and professional. He took a lot of time to explain my condition and treatment options. His staff informed me of the cost of a potential surgical procedure and then got insurance authorization. I opted for the procedure which went very well. Three days later my eyelid had completely recovered from the surgery and the problem was cured.
UofU Patient January 10, 2014Dr. Barlow clearly explained my condition, appropriate treatment options and set expectations for appropriate outcomes. I have a high level of confidence in Dr. Barlow's care and will definitely refer Dr. Barlow to friends and associates.
UofU Patient December 26, 2013Dr. Barlow was exceptional in every way! It is obvious how much he cares for his patients and answered all of my questions perfectly! I was very well taken care of!

UofU Patient December 16, 2013Nothing bad to say.
UofU Patient December 16, 2013I did not need to spend much time with the provider as it was just a routine exam but he was wonderful and I would definitely see him again if I ever had any concerns.
UofU Patient December 13, 2013I thought Dr. Barlow was outstanding!
UofU Patient December 12, 2013I feel very confident I made the right choice for my Cataract Surgery.
UofU Patient December 09, 2013I'm looking forward to my surgery. I feel I picked the best place to get it done.

UofU Patient September 23, 2013The whole experience was great!
UofU Patient September 09, 2013I really liked the doctor. Dr Barlow was very nice, and professional.
UofU Patient September 04, 2013wouldn't recommend for young children.
UofU Patient September 03, 2013I did want more information about my eye corrective prescription for near vision, in case I lost a contact or for some reason needed a new one, but forgot to bring it up. It did not seem to be a part of the eye exam.
UofU Patient August 28, 2013very professional and approachable. Get experience
UofU Patient August 27, 2013my Dr. did not do my eye exam. got a bad RX. Now i'm going to second appointment to get it correct I hope!
UofU Patient August 20, 2013Good experience. Dr. and assistant took time to explain to me what they had found and what it was.
UofU Patient August 19, 2013I have been to several optometrists/ophthalmologists in the Salt Lake area since 2007 and this is the first time I walked out satisfied and happy with the care I received.
UofU Patient August 14, 2013Dr Barlow was very careful to talk on my level of understanding. He also made sure I understood my condition and repeatedly asked if I had more questions. I would not hesitate to recommend him to others.
UofU Patient August 12, 2013The dr seemed like he wanted to get the heck out of dodge and did the minimum needed
UofU Patient August 05, 2013Dr Barlow seemed rushed and quickly escorted me out the door. Micah the assistant/nurse took more time with me than he did.
UofU Patient July 30, 2013When looking for a Doctor my Daughter siad that the U of U medical people are very passionate about their work and that is what sets them above the competition.
UofU Patient July 16, 2013good !
UofU Patient July 16, 2013I think Dr. Barlow is good but he sure did seem to be in a hurry when he examined my eyes. I felt rushed during his time with me. He seemed to want to get to his next project which as I noticed was not a patient waiting for him.
UofU Patient July 15, 2013comments apply to physician and technician.
UofU Patient July 05, 2013very good
UofU Patient July 02, 2013Technician gave wrong prescription and doctor hardly looked at tech's numbers. Had to return after prescription was no good and get the doctor to redo the prescription and go back to have another set of glasses made!!!
UofU Patient June 25, 2013I APPRECIATED DR BARLOW CALLING ME HIMSELF ABOUT A CHANGE WE MADE ON THE SCHEDULING OF THE SURGERY

UofU Patient April 22, 2013both, assistant and octor were very patient in answering my questions.
UofU Patient April 18, 2013very professional and nice
UofU Patient April 16, 2013Very good. Dr. was friendly and answered all questions/concerns.
UofU Patient March 25, 2013The doctor was good, but I really don't feel comfortable with a technician doing the eye exam, and determining the prescription of new lenses. The physician did come in for about 5 minutes at the end and checked for eye diseases etc. which was good. He was very easy to talk to and made me feel comfortable.
UofU Patient March 20, 2013Dr. Barlow solved the main problem I was having by having me try a lubricant for my eyes. Also, they didn't try to talk me into new glasses since I didn't need them. I really appreciated both recommendations. And will definitely come back to him for any further eye care.
UofU Patient March 19, 2013Good
UofU Patient March 12, 2013Good doctor, clinic and care:)
UofU Patient February 13, 2013Dr. Barlow was really great!! He was very concerned about my eye and did a great job ordering labs to see what the problem might be. He did such a great job and went above and beyond what I was expecting. I would highly recommend him to others!
UofU Patient February 11, 2013Everything was perfect
UofU Patient February 08, 2013Good
UofU Patient February 08, 2013Very nice doctor. Very helpful and carefully explained my condition and corrective vision options.
UofU Patient January 24, 2013Very positive and professional experience
UofU Patient January 06, 2013My whole experience was very positive.
UofU Patient December 31, 2012Felt like provider was in a hurry to finish with appointment. I didn't feel comfortable and satisfied with the little information given about diagnosis so was trying to think of my questions but seemed like doctor was in a hurry or annoyed with me asking question s
UofU Patient December 27, 2012Very professional and thorough assistant.
UofU Patient December 26, 2012This location was more convenient because I live in Bluffdale.
UofU Patient December 20, 2012Dr Barlow is outstanding. He is an excellent doctor and I really appreciate and thank him for diagnosing my problem and taking action to solve my potential eyesight issue
UofU Patient December 10, 2012Dr. Barlow was wonderful. He answered all my questions and put me at ease.
UofU Patient December 10, 2012I will highly recommending him to friends and family.
UofU Patient December 04, 2012Dr Barlow stayed late because I had complications with the pressure in my eye. He stayed and gave me his individual attention. He was terrific.
UofU Patient November 30, 2012good
UofU Patient November 29, 2012Dr Barlow was just great
UofU Patient November 15, 2012AJ and Dr. Barlow are exceptional. They showed exemplary skill, professionalism and patience as they ran many tests over three visits to them, to get the optimal prescriptions for my everyday glasses and for computer glasses. Mine was a difficult case with inconsistent test results. I'm very impressed at their concern and their persistence to keep testing until we got the best prescription, which we did! Thank you thank you!
UofU Patient November 15, 2012Doctor didn't tell me what exactly was going on and just gave me an antibiotic without letting me know what it was for. I told him I'm pretty sure my tear duct is blocked up and he didn't do anything about it. I have no idea what an antibiotic would do for me. And I'm still experiencing the problem, and taking an antibiotic for nothing and will need to pay again to come in and be seen by another doctor.
UofU Patient October 29, 2012The Dr. was in the room for a total of 3 minutes and that might be a stretch.
UofU Patient October 29, 2012good experience
UofU Patient October 24, 2012I brought my kid for an eye exam. I do not take my kid to an optometrist because I trust eye doctors better. Eye doctors I have seen in the past are the ones who make measurements for my kid new glassess. But this time the doctor just relied on what his assistant measured. Then why am I taking my kid to an eye doctor? it make no sense. I will not bring my kid to this care provider again.
UofU Patient October 17, 2012Dr Barlow and Cheryl were both outstanding
UofU Patient October 01, 2012Very impressed with Dr. Barlow. Liked him a lot.
UofU Patient September 20, 2012I've had great confidence but am starting to wonder since it is more than a month after surgery and I'm worse off. I'm trying to stay positive and go by assurances it will get better but beginning to wonder if this is the 2nd surgery that did not go as planned. I sure hope not.
UofU Patient September 18, 2012This dr. is very professional you can feel his concern to you- as patient. I like the way he explain the problem and educate you-.
UofU Patient September 18, 2012I did not feel rushed and felt very comfortable to ask questions.
UofU Patient September 12, 2012I have already told some of my friends and family how much I liked the care and location of the facility

UofU Patient August 27, 2012Dr Barlow is very professional and friendly.
UofU Patient August 03, 2012He was quite nice and helpful.
UofU Patient July 30, 2012The tech did my eye exam and the doctor changed it upon entering the room. now it seems that my close vision on my glasses is too strong.
UofU Patient July 25, 2012Dr. Barlow was very caring and even gave me a prophylaxis medication to prevent an eye infection so that I wouldn't have to worry about coming back in
UofU Patient July 23, 2012Everything was excellent
UofU Patient July 19, 2012Care provided was top-rate.
UofU Patient April 17, 2012Dr. Barlow was professional and helpful. He explained the problem, how to use the medication he prescribed, and what to do if the medication didn't work.
UofU Patient March 14, 2012I felt a little rushed and did not feel that I could completely explain all of my symptoms. I still have the same symptoms and a bad rash.
